this is my first message, so let me try to explain what I am using QCad for first. I am an architect, having worked on different CADs for some years (Vectorworks, formZ, Archicad, Autocad). At the moment, I do not much drafting but need a tool to work with plans others prepare for me, and as I do so on a Linux workstation, I started to look at QCad. I mostly have to measure distances in the drawing at the moment, to check and take over dimensions into other applications (simulations).

Now I can open my drawings and do all I want to, but it is more than unconfortable. The reason is that, I can set the object snap just to one mode. But in 90% I have to measure from an end point (geometry) to an intersection point (axis), which is the only accurate way to find locations of objects in a drawing. So for every point's location, I have to change the snap settings twice! Isn't there any way to set up the snap settings like "snap to end point, mod point, intersection point" once and for all?
